RECALL
The graph of an equation in two variables is a line in
the xy-plane.
For example the graph of y=2x+1 is a line shown in

SYSTEMS OF
A
system of linear inequalities is a set of inequalities.
INEQUALITIES
The system maybe be consistent or inconsistent
depending on whether it has a solution or not.
The solution to a system of inequalities is the set of
all points ( x , y ) such that every inequality in the
system is satisfied. Graphically, the solution is the
common region to all inequalities in the system.
The graph of a system of inequalities can be obtained
by simultaneously graphing each individual inequality
and finding where the shaded regions intersect (or
overlap).

STEPS
Write the objective function. This expression
represents the quantity that is to be maximized or
minimized.
Write the constraints. This is a system of linear
inequalities.
Graph the constraints. Graph the system which
contains the feasible solutions.
Identify the vertices. The corner points of the
shaded region represent maximum or minimum
values of the objective function.
Identify the optimal solution. The largest
(maximum) or smallest (minimum) value of the
objective function in Step 5 is the optimal solution.

2. A manufacturer of skis produces two models: a
regular ski and a slalom ski. A set of regular skis
produces a $25.00 profit and a set of slalom skis
produces a profit of $50.00. The manufacturer
expects a customer demand of at least 200 pairs of
regular skis and at least 80 pairs of slalom skis. The
maximum number of pairs of skis that can be
produced by this company is 400. How many of each
SUMMARY
Steps in graphing linear inequality:
1. Change the inequality sign to an equal sign.
2. Draw the line that corresponds to the equation in
Step 1.
If the inequality is strict, use a dashed line.
If the inequality is not strict, use a solid line.
3. Test a point.
Select a point (usually the origin) in one halfplane and test if it
satisfies the inequality.
The graph of a system of inequalities can be obtained by
4. Shade the half-plane that satisfy the inequality.
simultaneously graphing each individual inequality and fi
the shaded regions intersect (or overlap).
